I might be a bit late to this thread but I installed a LED turn,run,brake convrsion kit on my RSV. I belieive it looks brighter, although it might be the result of being focased better as stated earlier in this thread. The bulbs though brighter probably use more power, which is a commodity on the all Yammies not to mention running hotter.
The kit I used was about $70 delivered to Ontario Canada. Took about 2 hours to install. I also put a couple of lt pods(Walmart) $20 In the signal cct and found a third brake lt. in the wrecking yard for $10 added a .10 cent resistor on it and double fed it from the signal and brake cct's for more light. The hardest part of this Mod is installing the lamps eg. making brackets etc. I would be happy to share my installation including the wiring as best as I can for anyone interested and provide pics etc.
This is the kit I used an a link for a video of the lights. It looks a bit orange but in reallity it is red. Th day light video is poor but again it's a crappy camera.
This is just my install and not meant to bash anyone of us. Espeacially the fine upstanding bikers in our group
